Rabbit

Art done by the wonderful AkumaKat47! She was so amazing to work with and has been so supportive of me throughout writing the fic. I'm so glad I got to work with her for this event! 💜

So, here is the fic I've been working on for the past month! It's my submission for the BWBR MerMay 2026 event. It's my first time writing for an event like this and I had a blast! I also ended up writing way more than I expected but I enjoyed myself the whole time which made everything worth it in the end.

I do plan on writing more for this fic to wrap up some loose ends! So, be on the lookout for that.

Without further ado....

Sunken Murmurs

Summary:

Astarion was bored.

Since breaking free of his former master’s chains, life had become monotonous. While glad he was no longer under the bastard’s control, he hadn’t realized just how dull and repetitive freedom could be.

Most nights passed uneventfully, with hunting, swimming and eating, then he would rest during the day; repeating the same cycle over and over again.

Then a human dropped into his life and everything changed.

More info below:

I don't know if anyone wants them, but my old men are back.

Let's spread kisses for June :) Pucker those lips, I want to see my timeline filled with nothing but kisses all June long.

LOOK AT MY SON LOOK AT MY SWEET BABY BOY 🐰🐰🐰

Soon he will have clothes and an Astarion 🦊 but like... soon in the sense that I'm a very amateur 3D artist and trying my best!!! But I'm pretty happy with how he's animating and I'm excited to do his toggles and expressions 😈😈😈

This is a free art opportunity!

Basically I'm hoping to do 30 days of Wyll getting smooches. I'm not actually sure if she's posted it on Tumblr, but the idea of 30 days of kisses is from @parkouringrabbit I just decided to go with Wyll.

I'm accepting submissions to this Google form until the end of the month! Basically I'm putting everything in a spinner wheel and using these as warmups. Feel free to put in multiple entries for ocs, npcs, platonic or romantic kisses! There is not a guarantee I'll get to everyone's, but I would like to do as many as possible!

You don't have to be a follower, and the form was set up for bsky originally but I decided to post here as well. Please please help me share this to reach as many Wyllmancers and enjoyers as possible!!

Cursed Bloodweave Week

This One's for the Haters.

People like to complain on the internet. In the Bloodweave corner of said internet, there are certain tropes people love to complain about.

This is a week to celebrate those tropes in art or writing. Starting on Father's Day in honor of the much maligned Daddy Dom Gale.

Q&A:

Who's running this thing?

Direct your complaints to patheticfangirl.

Wait a minute! I like [trope]!

Yeah, I like some of these tropes too. That's the idea.

Create without apology. No matter how many people hate a trope, there's someone out there who will appreciate the weird little things your brain can conjure.

Grrr! I hate [trope]!

Yeah, I hate some of these tropes too.

The solution is simple: Don't like, don't read.

So you won't be reading every submission?

I won't be reading any Pregnant Astarion entries. Sorry. I have backup readers for that. But I stand by the fandom's right to impregnate that vampire.

Do I have to include both prompts for each day?

Nope. You can pick either prompt, but I have paired them so it would be easy to include both if you're so inclined. You're also welcome to mix and match. I'm not a cop.

What does [prompt] mean?

Prompts are open to interpretation.

If you believe your Astarion is a twink, then he is. What you consider to be 'soft' or 'distressed' or 'self-insert' is entirely up to you.

What about 'That One AU You Despise'?

Consider it a challenge to write something you personally don't enjoy.

Hate coffee shop AUs? Try writing one.

Hate cavemen AUs? Try drawing one.

You don't have to do it. No one's forcing you. But you might just discover something you like in something you hate, and wouldn't that be a neat development?

Can I roast or parody the trope I hate?

Sure, if you want. There's an audience for that too.

If you find yourself on the other side, thinking 'they're making fun of Vampire Spawn Gale' when he's your favorite pookie of all time or getting upset when pregnant Astarion schedules an abortion, just remember it's not that serious. None of these characters are real.

Can I include another ship? Poly Bloodweave?

As long as there's Bloodweave, sure.

It's even sort of expected for BJ Queen Gale.

Three Rules:

Don't use AI.

Don't be a dick (posting racism/sexism/transphobia, bashing creators in your notes, neglecting to tag archive warnings, etc.).

Have fun. You remember fun, right?
